Trade Minister Ömer Bolat reports that Türkiye's share in global goods and services exports has reached record highs, positioning the nation as a premier global hub for manufacturing and services.
At the prestigious Platinum Global 100 Awards in Istanbul, Trade Minister Ömer Bolat announced that Türkiye has achieved its highest-ever standing in global trade metrics. The nation continues to outperform global averages in both goods and services exports relative to its Gross Domestic Product (GDP), underscoring the success of Recent industrial diversification programs.
According to the latest data, Türkiye’s share of global goods exports has reached 1.08%, while its share in the global services sector has surged to 1.3%. 'These figures are not just numbers; they represent the hard work of our exporters and the strategic vision of a nation that is now a critical bridge in the global supply chain,' Minister Bolat stated during his keynote address.
The awards recognized top performers in the 'Success in Export' and 'Digital Transformation' categories. The focus on R&D and high-tech manufacturing has allowed Turkish firms to pivot rapidly to changing global needs, particularly in automotive components, defense technology, and specialized financial services. This digital shift is a core component of the Centennial of Türkiye vision.
